Flight Score
Departure
Ease the nose up sooner to lift off at 125 kt instead of letting speed build on the ground.
What happened: The aircraft lifted off at 143 kt, 18 kt above the target liftoff speed.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 125 kt at liftoff
See Departure Roll
Arrival
Track the centreline through touchdown using small rudder corrections against a point at the far end of the runway.
What happened: The aircraft touched down off the centreline at 12 m, and drifting off centreline at touchdown usually carries through into the rollout, as it did here with alignment reaching 20 m.
Watch for: Watch runway centreline position, keeping deviation inside the limit through touchdown and rollout.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: six checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.
At the 500 ft gate: sink rate 2,923 fpm, more than the glideslope needed, glideslope 5.6° against the runway's 3°, wings 21° of bank, against a 10° limit and speed 29 kt FAST on the reference speed of 113 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,644 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 527 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The Cessna 750 Citation X taxied from the parking area to runway 08 at Innsbruck Airport in 10 minutes, covering 2 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 08, the aircraft used 814 m of runway (42 % of runway) and lifted off at 143 kt. Local weather at the time was 26 °C with a wind of 1 kt from 176°, a cross-wind component of 1 kt and no head-wind.
Climb commenced overhead Innsbruck, rising from 2 825 ft asl to 36 993 ft asl - an increase of 34 169 ft - in 14 minutes while covering 82 nm.
The first level cruise began over Wangen, Baden-Wuerttemberg, and continued for 53 minutes, during which 386 nm were flown.
Descent started 2 mi north-east of Saint-Evroult-de-Montfort, France, descending from 37 004 ft asl to 8 939 ft asl - a loss of 28 065 ft - in 13 minutes and covering 91 nm.
A short cruise segment followed 10 mi south-east of Saint Helier, Jersey, lasting 3 minutes and spanning 15 nm.
The next descent began 7 mi south-west of EGJJ Jersey Airport, dropping from 7 598 ft asl to 2 986 ft asl - a decrease of 4 611 ft - in 3 minutes over 11 nm.
A further cruise leg started 15 mi south-west of EGJJ, lasting 3 minutes and covering 12 nm.
The final descent commenced 6 mi west of EGJJ, reducing altitude from 2 963 ft asl to 907 ft asl - a loss of 2 055 ft - in 2 minutes while traveling 6 nm.
On final approach to runway 08 at EGJJ Jersey Airport, the aircraft descended from 1 374 ft agl to 40 ft agl in 49 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates.
Landing on runway 08, which is 1 644 m long, occurred with a threshold speed of 129 kt. Touchdown was 340 m beyond the touchdown zone at 116 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 240 fpm and a lateral deviation of 19.2 m from the centreline. Local conditions were 24 °C, wind 13 kt from 149°, cross-wind 12 kt and head-wind 5 kt. Total landing distance was 1 350 m (82 % of runway).
Rollout alignment was noted as misaligned by 19.6 m from the centreline.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 5 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 610 nm, took 107 minutes, and consumed 1 390 kg of fuel.
The Cessna 750 Citation X approached runway 08 at EGJJ Jersey Airport from 1,374 ft agl to 40 ft agl in 49 seconds, with the descent scored on the stabilisation gates. Local conditions were a temperature of 24 °C, wind 13 kt from 149°, providing a 12 kt cross-wind component and a 5 kt head-wind.
At threshold the aircraft’s speed was well above target at 129 kt, and the flare was initiated from the good threshold height recorded.
Touchdown occurred 340 m beyond the touchdown zone with a speed of 116 kt, described as a little fast, and a fair vertical rate of minus 240 fpm. The touchdown point was significantly misaligned, being 19.2 m off the centreline, and the aircraft required a total landing distance of 1,350 m, representing 82 % of the 1,644 m runway.
During rollout the aircraft remained misaligned, deviating 19.6 m from the centreline while decelerating along the runway.
Improving centreline tracking on final and during rollout will reduce the lateral deviation observed. Reducing the approach and touchdown speeds toward the target values will also help achieve a more precise touchdown point and lower runway usage.
